Chocolate Cosmos

Chocolate Cosmos is the innovator in developing clean energy and contemporary weatherbox design. The members of Chocolate Cosmos are Riley (Computer), Kenneth (Computer), and Sawinna (Electrical). The EE296 team is part of the Smart-Campus Energy Lab (SCEL), which is a Vertically Integrated Project (VIP).

Below are the block diagrams for the signal and power systems that will be implemented to make our weatherbox.

The following table consists of our four powerpoints presented over the course of the project. We worked on the presentations together and split the slides in a way where we each had equal opportunities to discuss our individual efforts on the project. The four presentations include all of the base guidelines given to us in the presentation guidelines along with captivating visuals provided by Riley Cammack and Sawinna Huang.
